Radios for Protesters | When cell signal gets jammed, how do you communicate? | Keeping each other a little safer |

We're good on funds for radio purchases currently (still taking physical donations) - if you feel so inclined to still toss money at a cause, fundraising to get a ballistics helmet (which'll also help with a radio-based project 👀)

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

Fucking awesome to see people taking an interest in radio stuff!!

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

Okay woah lots of demand for the guides/videos - I'll get those publicly listed later today/tomorrow, I've been busy working on other MA stuff with a bit more urgency and that's taken my attention 🖤

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

With the snow and everyone trying to stay inside, now's a great time to learn about radios or study to get licensed! We've got training videos and books available, shoot us a DM if you're interested🖤

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

@CharmedbyCate @JakeDockter Guilty as charged!

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

Quick update: this is still a thing! Reach out with your questions/needs and I'll do my best to help - Radio Bloc is primarily 1 person with occasional help from friends, so life has taken priority.

Apologies for the radio silence (pun intended), stay dangerous and fuck 12! 🖤

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

@shadyproject Nope! More than just FRS

@antifa_fc We getting the exclusive broadcast rights for commentary? 👀

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

Stay safe everyone! If you need anything radio related, reach out and I'll see what we can do 🖤

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

Hey all! A few updates:

- if you got a message saying I can get you a radio, let us know when you're at RH!! Handoffs are over there for simplicity

- I can also program radios if you're at RH, send me a message and I'll pick it up, program it and deliver it back to you

(Cont)

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

- The radios we've got should make a significant difference otg, but most importantly we need a 2 way radio for off-site comms in case of an emergency. If you've got something with over 10 watts of power, DM us - otherwise we need about $100 more to buy one + an antenna

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

@cremebruleepdx @genialanarchist @PDXRosieRiddle @anarchistvibes All of the ones I've got currently still need to go out to people (haven't had time, personal life + working on projects 16 hours a day) - if someone doesn't mind me tossing my laptop in their car afterwards, I can sit around and program radios for folx at the very least 🥺👉👈

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

Boosting on this account too - public scanners are missing out on a lot of info, and are typically unreliable since Broadcastify and the like comply with non-legally-binding requests to go dark to aid police operations

@BLMGearHeadsSea @justjae206 @seattleYLF I've been wanting an excuse to visit Seattle again anyways, y'all want help setting stuff up? 👀

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

@BurritoBloc I can absolutely help out!!

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

Not going to be at the Mutual Aid event on the 6th, instead I'll be out and about for the KP event. I'm going to be reaching out to folx about radios today and sharing a date/time for pickups and radio programming if you've got your own 🖤

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

@pwade0102 Shoot me a DM and we can talk :)

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

Hey all! We've got a WAY larger demand than originally expected, so I'm going to start fundraising batch 2 while I work on programming batch 1 (since demand is here)!

About $32 is the cost per radio, so again we're looking to raise $160 for 5 radios, or a stretch of $320 for 10

[Radio Bloc @RadioBlocPDX]

We're in good company here - If you can afford it, support your local mutual aid groups so we can support you 🖤
